Eco Earth Coconut Substrate 3-pk

Versatile natural substrate option for tropical or desert herptile species. Zoo Med Eco Earth© is eco-friendly coconut fiber substrate ideal for all types of reptiles, amphibians, small animals, or insects. Made from a renewable resource of coconut fibers, Eco Earth can be safely composted when you perform a bedding/substrate change of your reptile's home. Compressed coconut fiber substrate shipped as eco-conscious bricks require minimum packaging material for a sensible way to reduce packaging waste. Once properly hydrated, compressed coconut fiber brick expands up to eight times its size to produce 7-8 liters of ready-to-use substrate, enough for a 40 gallon aquarium. Naturally absorbs and breaks down odors and waste. Use damp for tropical species, dry for desert species, or mix with an organic fertilizer for the perfect vivaria soil. 3-pack.
